I've been attending therapy sessions with Dr. Smith since October 2023. Throughout our sessions, I have consistently felt safe and encouraged to share my feelings. Dr. Smith not only listens attentively but also highlights the progress I've made. She provides valuable ideas and actionable steps for me to work on between sessions. I always eagerly anticipate our sessions together. Would highly recommend her.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
